E32 No forward, No reverse, Trans Program error - Bimmerforums - The Ultimate BMW Forum this is a intresting read and alot of technical info on the zf 4 speed trouble shooting

Thats what i thought about pressure! So what about clutches would that be the same priciple ?

Hi datatec i wish it was filter or o ring all have been renewed! Of i have to remove box i will replace it wit a second hand working unit ! Remembering not to break the pump when i fit it :) i have learnt alot on here thanks if anyone has any ideas if its electrical and can be fixed it situ...

So what sense i can make of it is that the ttorque converter and clutches are it ok because it does not slip in limp mode . i understand that d and r are on seperate clurches and i cannot see how two clutches can fail at same time . this points me to a pressure problem or electrial ! This is my...

Just to ad reving to 5k may be an exageration! Today i have tryed to drive it again ! I start it up no faults displayed i put it in drive and it slips badly to the point it hardly moves! i rev it to just over 25000rpm and clunk bangs into limpmode and drives without slipping i can stop and go no...

Hello again just one more thing i need someone to tell me in simple terms . My transmission slips in all gears forward and reverse to the point where it wont move in high range ! So why is it that it dont slip at all in limp home mode? . i have driven it today about 10 miles in limpmod. e and it...

Yea i know my fingers! and alot of swearing

Thanks for all the info . im going to check the pressure if thats ok il put in some lucas ! If no luck pull it out and strip it learn as i go :s....

It changes through the gears when it eventually gets moving but slips in every gear + reverse + low range . it doesnt slip in limphome i pull off ok it just stays in 3 rd but if i stop and select reverse it will all slip again? I think a autobox is more complex than most over machanics ! id...

No slipping at all in limp home mode plenty of pull just dont move out that gear ! What happen 1. start up everythings fine 2. Select reverse to back out drive way slipping starts o rev and move a snails pace 3. Select drive rev again and crawl along 3 mph so select low range and 3mph turns...

Il give that a try ! But i dont understand why it slip in forward and reverse and when rev on drive it slams in gear and drives with no slipping at all but dont shift up or down just stuck in one gear! And gearbox fault appear breifly and then goes leaving no gear position on display ? I then...

Dealer gave me the code. entered it as landrover instruction card and shes away i finished filling with oil and the sytoms are better i have drive in all gears but its still slipping in all gears high range and low forward and reverse ? Im just wondering if my atf level is correct because thats...

New filter fitted no problem. but my battery has gone flat so i change it a got the lockout code i havnt the code in my pack ! Do i need to contact landrover or is there another way to mobilise my p38?

Thanks il let you know how it goes

5 ltrs came out and 5 went in i did put the last 0.5 in with engine running. im draining again to put the filter in so i will follow your guidence cheers for the info . just to let you know im not a landrover machanic but will take on most jobs thats the only way to learn.

It was all ok until these symtons came. i am changinge filter today and see if that works. Is there anyway of freeing sticky valves ?

Just to ad when i rev it in d or 3 2 1 it will slip there will not be any fault message so i will blip the throttle upto 5k and it will clonk and then drive in 3 it seems with gearbox fault on dash briefly and then the display goes blank leaving mileage but no gear position. i can now drive and...

No noises or anything strange prior to failure
